a sad rap song about how 99% of all animals are extinct sung by a turtle named bob
Lyrics
[intro]
Yo, it's Bob the turtle... (slow crawl)
Shell heavy with the weight... of all that's gone...
99%... vanished... yeah...
[verse]
I been around since the seas were young, flippers paddlin' through the mist,
Watchin' empires rise in the waves, then crumble to nothin' but silt and twist.
Trilobites scuttlin' on the ocean floor, gone in a blink, no goodbye kiss,
Cambrian explosion, life burst wide, now it's echoes in the abyss.
Dinosaurs roarin', thunder in the skies, T-Rex teeth gleamin' bright,
One rock from the heavens, poof—extinct, left me hidin' in the night.
Mammoths trudgin' through the ice, woolly giants stompin' proud,
Tundra turned to mud, they sank away, no trumpets, just a shroud.
Dodos waddlin' dumb on that island shore, feathers soft, no fear in sight,
Sailors came with clubs, now they're ghosts in the wind, lost to the fight.
Sabertooth tigers prowlin' the plains, fangs drippin' with the hunt's red thrill,
Ice age melted quick, they starved in the brush, leavin' bones on the hill.
Passenger pigeons blackin' the sun, billions flockin' in endless stream,
Hunters with their guns turned sky to ground, shredded that fever dream.
99% of my kin, my crew, my world—wiped clean from the slate,
I'm still here, slow and steady, but damn, it feels too late.
[chorus]
99% gone, (gone), vanished from the chain,
Just me and a few, carryin' all the pain,
99% ghosts in the dirt and the rain,
Bob the turtle, last of the old remain.
99% gone, (gone), species in the grave,
Earth spins on empty, no one left to save,
99%... just waves on the wave.
[verse]
I seen reefs alive with color blitz, fish dartin' like fireworks free,
Coral palaces towerin' high, now bleached bones swayin' in debris.
Frogs croakin' choruses at midnight's call, rivers full of leapin' green,
Poisons in the water, they choked and fell, silent now, if you know what I mean.
Bees buzzin' wild in the fields of gold, pollinatin' every bloom,
Chemicals and cold, they dropped from the sky, left the flowers to their doom.
Rhinos stompin' heavy, horns like crowns in the African dust,
Poachers with their blades, now horns on walls, turned trust into rust.
99% ain't just numbers, it's family I raced with under the sun,
Pterosaurs soarin', ichthyosaurs divin', all done, every one.
I'm crawlin' through the wreckage, shell scarred from the falls,
Wonderin' if my turn's comin', hearin' extinction's calls.
Slow as I am, I outlasted the flash, but loneliness bites deeper than jaws,
World's a museum now, me the last exhibit, pausin' for applause.
[break]
[bridge]
(sigh) Yeah... what we got left? A handful hangin' on...
Me, Bob, watchin' the clock tick wrong...
One percent fighters, but the odds feel long...
Shell holds memories, but the fight's too strong.
[chorus]
99% gone, (gone), vanished fr
